I then used Picnik photo editing software to “posterize” the original photograph and add text. Playing with fonts is such a fun way to waste spend time!

So what do you think?
Would you have even recognized these as the same plates?

Do you ever feel like something in your faith is missing – that going to church, studying the Bible, and tithing just aren't enough? What would it look like to truly follow Christ and not just believe in him?

FAITH REQUIRED

When it’s quiet here at My (virtual) Place, it’s almost always noisy at My (in real life) Place. It’s been quiet here for quite awhile. I’ve really missed you. At home it’s been crazy-noisy, ridiculously yo-yo-ish, and an emotional roller coaster. It’s been a long time since I’ve experienced a period so chock-full […]

Some of you may remember when this was the view from my kitchen window. (HERE‘s the post if you want to read it.) I’m so glad that’s not the case anymore! This beautiful site caused me to grab the camera and head outside. Not even the slight haze of early evening could […]

Have you noticed? RISK has been a common topic here lately. Even before Amy Sullivan issued her #RiskRejection challenge – and I accepted it – risk was already happening. I guess without intentionally choosing one, RISK has become my word for 2014. Throughout the month of December, as I wrote my daily Themes of […]

Life Lesson #8: Look for the beauty in every season of life… As I pull out linens for each of the year’s seasons, I’m reminded that they all serve a different purpose. Perhaps that’s why I have so many! It’s a good reminder that each season of my life has a purpose, too. It’s […]

Two weeks ago today I hosted a meeting to introduce a new “caring for children and families in stress” resource to my county: Safe Families for Children. We started a conversation, encouraging the Church to step into its God-given responsibility: love one another care for orphans It’s not an easy conversation – and there are […]
